Perhaps one of Harry's greatest works was the music for 'The Lisbon Story' which was made into a full feature film starring Patricia Burke and Richard Tauber

Tauber's recording of 'Pedro the Fisherman' was on the lips of most of the British people at the time.

Christopher Hassall  was lyricist to Ivor Novello and he was
impressed with Harry's Music so he joined forces for  Dear Miss Phoebe and others.  He considered Harry to be in the same league as Novello and other great  musicians of the time.
